Top Attractions in Sali
💡 Buy groundnuts in paper cones from older women near the entrance — they're roasted with sea salt and cost under 100 CFA. Check basket weave tightness before buying.
💡 Sit on the low wall outside around 5pm — that's when local children gather to practice Koran recitation after school. Photos are polite from the street only.
💡 Arrive at sunset and bring your own stool or mat. Clapping at the end of each story is the ritual. If you're asked to tell a story, a short one about how something in your country got its name works well.
💡 Bring shoes for muddy spots after rain. Ask a fisherman to show you how they cast nets — they're usually friendly if you smile first.
💡 Start at the pink-painted house on the main dirt road east. If you find fallen baobab fruit, crack it open — the sour white pulp mixed with water makes a traditional vitamin C drink.
